DUI stop on West Street

RUTLAND — On Nov. 10, members of the Vermont State Police Rutland Barracks conducted a motor vehicle stop at U.S. Route 7 and West Street after observing a motor vehicle law violation. The operator of the vehicle was identified as Christopher S. Varney, 48, of Massachusetts. While speaking to Varney he displayed signs of impairment, and was screened for DUI. Varney provided a preliminary sample of his breath which yielded a 0.116 percent BrAC. Varney was taken into custody, and transported to the VSP Rutland Barracks, where he was processed for DUI. Vaney was later released on citation to appear at Vermont Superior Court Criminal Division at a later time.
